Chapter 77: Xuduo’s rejection

This was Xuduo? I stood in front of the man. He appeared weaker than I had imagined. He was very pale and his body was thin and flimsy. Was it due to the bone marrow surgery?

“Hi, my name is Lin Yixin. Today, I’m here because of Principal Lu Wenxue. Do you still remember him?”

*Bang*. Xuduo quickly ducked back into his apartment and forcefully slammed the door. While the door was in motion, the wind blew and my hair stuck onto my face.

“I don’t know any Lu Wenxue. Please leave!” Xuduo yelled from the inside.

He refused to see me and locked me out?

My fingers were fidgety as I fumbled with the button on my shirt. This was not what I had expected. I got rid of the hair that was sticking on my face as I knocked again, “Mr. Xu, I am not here to force you to do anything. I just want to have a talk with you.”

But regardless of how many times I knocked, Xuduo seemed to have disappeared. There wasn’t a single sound coming from within. It was as if he was fearful of the words 'Lu Wenxue'.

I regretted making my intentions clear so early….at this rate, this will not do. It appeared that he will not open the door for me today. I can’t waste all my time on him.

I sighed deeply and noticed a semi-transparent old granny attentively watching me from the stairs. It was a ghost, and I couldn’t pretend not to see her. So, I smiled and slightly bowed at her.

“You are?” Suddenly, someone spoke up. I thought it was the old granny as I hastily lifted my head. But it was a gentle looking woman who was holding a food basket in one hand. She kindly asked, “Are you here for Xuduo?”

“Ummm...yes...you are?”

“I’m his girlfriend. My name is Xiaoai. What’s wrong? No one answered the door? When I left, he was still at home. Perhaps he had stepped out?” Xiaoai took out her keys and was about to open the door, “Why don’t you come in and take a seat while you wait for him to return.”

“Wait!” I prevented Xiaoai from opening the door. If she opened the door now, it would put me in a bad position. Instead…

“If possible, could we speak first? My name is Lin Yixin.”

“You want to speak with me?”

Xiaoai took me to a nearby cafe. She seemed a bit anxious as she sat across from me. She kept rubbing her hands together. Every time she appeared to want to say something, she would hesitate. Her behaviour was making my heart unstable.

I couldn’t take it anymore and suggested, “If there is something you want to say to me, go ahead!”

Finally, her face turned red and she asked, “Are you Xuduo’s lover? Are you here to take him away from me?”

*Pu* I choked on my coffee so hard that I saw stars. *cough cough*. “I…..oh my goodness, I’m so sorry!” *cough cough* She instantly handed me a tissue to wipe my mouth.

I must explain immediately before she imagined worse things in her mind. “Don’t worry, I’m not that type of person. Today, I merely came for Xuduo. Since you’re his girlfriend, have you heard of a person named Lu Wenxue?”
